What are the largest casinos by online player counts?

I know ladbrokes and some others are huge but any idea which are largest online casinos by player count in the world?

Listed company results would give you a feel for it, usually divided up as active and registered players, but that might be something of a slog through the reports.

Just to give you a feel, the recent 888 Holdings annual report logged 13.1 million players registered...and they don't take US action. There bare many other big European groups that market their online offerings aggressively and make hundreds of millions in revenues from their players, so you can imagine they also have very large player databases.

Looking at recent tournament numbers of FTP it is not unusual to see in excess of 30,000 players online (I think the record is somewhere around 60,000 at one time) and in action in big tourneys, so Pokerstars will also have a large registered player base and the biggest of them all.

Finally, even financial spread betting attracts plenty of punters - the recently failed Intrade had around 287,000 in November last year before it started to crash and burn after legal hassles in the USA.

Long story short - there are very large playerbases at major onlne casino, sports betting, poker and bingo companies - even in these tough times and in many cases without the benefit of access to the gigantic US market!

Cross-product brands with a land-based presence tend to be up there. As such, you can't look much past brands like bet365, Will Hill, Ladbrokes, Paddy Power in terms of player volume. Player value is altogether different of course.

Interesting piece on an affiliate website that covers the UK - I guess similar information will be available at a national level elsewhere in regulated markets.

Brands with an Asian presence too are undoubtedly heaving in terms of player numbers. The last time I looked in to this in terms of Playtech operators, I'm pretty sure a Japanese brand topped all the ones you'd have heard of (I can't even recall the name).
